Description

Weak signal extraction method for known strong signal scene
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of radio direction finding, and particularly relates to a weak signal extraction method for a known strong signal scene.
Background
The radio signal received by the antenna array can be used for not only direction finding of a radiation source for radiating the radio signal, but also spatial filtering of a plurality of signals which are aliased together in time domain and frequency domain, and has important significance in the aspects of interference source monitoring, electromagnetic spectrum multiplexing, multi-signal resolution and the like of electronic information equipment such as communication, radar and the like.
Radars working in complex target environments and electromagnetic spectrum environments are often affected by various interference sources, and as pulse signals radiated by the interference sources and pulse signals radiated by the radars are aliased together in time domains and frequency domains, the false alarm probability, detection probability, direction finding and ranging accuracy and other target detection performances of the radars are deteriorated. The method has the advantages that the spatial filtering is carried out on the radio signals received by the antenna array, the pulse signal waveform radiated by the interference source can be separated, and important basis is provided for analyzing and inhibiting the influence of the interference source on the radar target detection performance.
There are many methods for spatial filtering of radio signals received by an antenna array, including conventional beam forming filtering methods, minimum variance distortion-free response filtering methods, and the like. The method mainly comprises the steps of performing spatial filtering processing on signals received by an antenna array under the condition of given incoming wave direction, and extracting the signals in the incoming wave direction. However, in the case where the antenna array is co-located with the radar, i.e. when the antenna array is operated in the vicinity of the radar, the signals received by the antenna array contain both the pulsed signals of co-located radar radiation and the signals of the interference source radiation, wherein the direction of the incoming wave of the pulsed signals of co-located radar radiation is known and the pulsed signals of the interference source radiation is unknown. Therefore, when the incoming wave direction of the pulse signal radiated from the co-located radar is known, it is necessary to perform spatial filtering processing on the signal received from the antenna array, and extract a weak signal whose wave direction is unknown.
Because the antenna array and the co-located radar work in the same time domain and frequency domain and are influenced by the far-near effect, the signal amplitude of the radiation of the remote interference source is far smaller than the pulse signal amplitude of the radiation of the near co-located radar in the signals received by the antenna array. Therefore, it is necessary to perform spatial filtering processing on the signals received by the antenna array to extract weak signals with unknown wave directions when the pulse signal amplitude of the co-located radar radiation is far greater than the signal amplitude of the interference source radiation.
